I hate to ask on here guys but I've googled it and cannot find where to buy a new digital dash cluster for an '86.

Anyone know of a website?

Not sure they are available new. I have never seen them listed anywhere. Most of us either find a good used one (I did, two years ago for $250), re-solder the connections ourselves, or send them out to one of the rebuilders. Good luck. Dave

I've seen a rebuild service listed on Ebay, but I don't remember seeing any new ones for sale.

I got a rebuilt dash cluster about a year ago from "SCARABEXC". He is a forum member
here. You could find him in the member list, or maybe he will see your post and answer.
Mine, for my '88 was priced right and works perfect. I had done the recommended repairs
and extra grounds with some success, but trouble kept comming back. I recommend letting Scarabexc do the rebuild, apparently he has done a bunch of them and is good at it.
You will need to send you old unit to him after the swapout, so he can rebuild it too. He then sends the core charge $ back to you Good luck with your project, KDTOMCZAK. dd
